OEone Scales Back Calendar Development

Wednesday March 19th, 2003

Mike Potter, who leads the development of Mozilla Calendar, has posted a newsgroup message about the project's status to netscape.public.mozilla.calendar. Most of the current work on Calendar is funded by OEone, who utilise its code in their HomeBase Desktop application. However, a change of priorities at OEone means that Calendar will not be receiving the same level of development attention as in the past. While work on the project will not stop altogether, the rate of progress is likely to be slower than that seen previously.

but if you are going to have those you might as well have the suite with calendar app as it's the final piece that can allow someone to schedule a meeting via mail, through your address book nicknames, and have it in the schedule. Something like this can compete with Outlook which is something few things can do.
